Accommodation strategies

Liverpool City Council, together with its partner agencies, service users and carers, have developed two accommodation strategies - the Accommodation Strategy for Older People and the Supported Living Strategy.

The strategies have been developed to ensure vulnerable people have access to appropriate accommodation and levels of support for their needs.

Both strategies can be downloaded from this page:
